Re: [SHADEGARDENS] ANOTHER BOOK


I would like to add my 2 cents worth to this recommendation on Mickel's
book. I always to his book first for straight-forward information on ferns.
I especially like the rating system he has for the difficulty or easiness
of growing a particular species in the garden. I highly recommend this
books as a single reference on ferns for the gardening book shelf.
